Imperial GV0322-C 3 Inch 90 Degree Adjustable Furnace Elbow

Product Description

The IMPERIAL MFG GROUP USA INC GV0322-C is a 3-inch adjustable 90-degree furnace elbow fabricated from 26-gauge galvanized steel. It is used to route round duct in residential and light-commercial HVAC systems where a 90-degree direction change is required. The adjustable design allows the installer to dial in the angle without cutting or fabricating additional fittings on the job. At 3.02 pounds per unit, the fitting is robust enough for lasting duct connections in forced-air heating applications. HVAC installers and sheet metal technicians are the primary trades that handle this component.

This elbow is suited for forced-air gas furnace duct systems operating in residential and light-commercial settings. It connects to 3-inch round duct runs and is commonly used near the furnace collar, at ceiling or floor transitions, or wherever a hard 90-degree turn is needed in a supply or return branch. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in both conditioned and unconditioned spaces such as attics, crawlspaces, and mechanical rooms. Each unit is sold individually, and the product is packaged in quantities of 8.

Key Features

• Adjustable design accommodates angle variations without additional field fabrication
• 26-gauge galvanized steel construction for durability and corrosion resistance
• 90-degree elbow profile for tight directional changes in duct runs
• 3-inch diameter fits standard round duct and furnace collars
• Packaged in quantities of 8 for job-site convenience

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 3-inch round duct systems in residential and light-commercial forced-air heating installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or sheet metal worker in accordance with local mechanical codes and SMACNA duct construction standards. Power down the furnace and confirm the system is de-energized before working on connected ductwork. Secure the elbow to adjoining duct sections using sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL 181-rated mastic or foil tape to maintain system efficiency and prevent air leakage. Avoid over-compressing the adjustable collar, as deformation of the 26-gauge material can compromise the seal.
